The best feature of a station wagon is already in the name: the vehicle category combines plenty of storage space with comfortable and often sporty handling. 600 liters of trunk volume and over 300 hp can be easily combined in this category.
Sport and family, pragmatism and fun then meet. You often have to dig a little deeper into your pocket for this mixture, but Carwow is currently offering a discount of up to 10,000 euros on various models!

Skoda Octavia Combi: the versatile one
The fourth generation of the Skoda Octavia has been on the market since 2021. In particular, the front, the interior and the dimensions have been refreshed. The trunk of the Octavia Combi now holds 640 liters – that’s 30 liters more than in the third generation. However, the platform on which the VW Golf stands (MQB Evo) has remained. The latest generation of the Octavia comes with almost all drive types. That means: diesel, petrol, plug-in hybrid and natural gas. The Czech does not yet exist as a purely electric car.
Skoda Octavia Combi: The trunk has been increased from the third to the fourth generation and now holds 640 liters.
As a basic model, the station wagon starts at 28,690 euros. Then the Skoda comes with a 1.0 TSI engine and delivers 110 hp. But if storage space is just as important as driving pleasure, it is better to use the RS variant. Then the Octavia with the 2.0 TSI engine delivers 245 hp. Of course, the price also increases – in the case of the Octavia RS to 43,110 euros. It’s a good thing that Carwow offers a discount of up to 7457 euros!
Toyota Corolla Touring Sports: well-known and yet completely new
The Toyota Corolla is an old and very familiar name. More than 45 million copies have been sold since the 1960s. The success paused for more than ten years, because the Corolla became the Auris. In 2019, however, Toyota returned to the usual name. The station wagon is called the Corolla Touring Sports.
It disappeared from the market for a few years, but the Toyota Corolla has been back on the scene since 2019.
Only the “Team Germany” hybrid model with a 1.8-liter petrol engine is currently available in the configurator. This delivers 122 hp (90 kW), has a trunk volume of 596 liters and costs at least 28,750 euros. However, you can still save a lot, because Carwow offers a discount of up to 4234 euros on the station wagon!
Kia Ceed Sportswagon: the surprising one
The Kia Ceed Sportswagon is a serious opponent of the VW Golf Variant. Appealing looks, generous trunk (625 liters) and a surprisingly sporty handling are just a few of the arguments for the South Korean. In the base, the station wagon comes with a smooth 100 hp and starts at an inexpensive 22,490 euros. For comparison: the standard version of the Golf Variant has an output of 110 hp, but costs at least 28,800 euros.
The Kia Ceed Sportswagon is inexpensive and practical. But when it comes to handling, it surprises with agility.
It gets sportiest with the Ceed SW in the “Platinum” equipment line. As a petrol engine, the station wagon then delivers 160 hp, but also costs 34,090 euros. But don’t worry: At Carwow you can currently save up to 7599 euros!
Cupra Leon Sports Tourer: space and horsepower in harmony
The station wagon from Cupra lives up to the “Sport” in Sports Tourer. The entry-level model already delivers 245 hp as a petrol engine, but also costs at least 39,310 euros. The PHEV has less power: 150 kW (204 hp). Cupra requires at least 40,645 euros for this. But of course the end of the road has not yet been reached here. The top model is called Cupra Leon Sportstourer VZ Cup, comes with all-wheel drive, seven-speed DSG and 310 hp. Cost point: 50,630 euros.
With a trunk volume of 620 liters, the Leon Sportstourer is not only fast, but also practical. The combination of lots of driving fun and storage space has its price. Luckily, it’s a little lower at Carwow – thanks to a discount of up to 8578 euros.
BMW 3 Series Touring: sporty to practical
An all-time favorite is definitely the BMW 3 Series Touring – whether as a practical family car or as a company car. BMW offers 15 different drive variants. In the basic version, the station wagon is called the 318i Touring, runs on petrol, has 156 hp and costs at least 45,000 euros. The trunk swallows 500 liters. This puts the Munich player in last place in this list. In addition to classic petrol and diesel drives, plug-in hybrids are also represented.
As the M340i, the BMW 3 Series Touring delivers 374 hp, but then it also costs a lot.
The most powerful 3 Series is the M340i. With an impressive 374 hp, it reaches 100 km/h from a standing start in 4.6 seconds. Cost point: 72,300 euros. For many little horses, many coins must be put on the table. Carwow is currently offering a discount of up to 10,484 euros on the 3-seater station wagon.
VW Golf Variant: the classic
The most popular model of the Germans (new registrations 2021) is also available as a station wagon. The VW Golf Variant has been on the market since the third Golf generation – i.e. since 1991. In the current generation it comes as the Golf 8 Variant with at least 110 hp and costs 28,800 euros. The upper limit is set by the Variant R with 320 hp and all-wheel drive for 54,175 euros. So it stays close to its corporate brother, the Cupra Leon Sportstourer.
The VW Golf Variant is the station wagon version of the most popular car in Germany (new registrations 2021).
The trunk of the VW Golf Variant holds 611 liters. Here he stays a little behind the Cupra counterpart, but the difference is only nine liters. At Carwow, you can currently get a discount of up to 8183 euros!
